agree with Joe, I also prefer loopMidi over everything else, and also agree about the rest. Really don't know what isn't working, sorry.

What I do in such cases is to try with a different computer. Or reinstall the operating system. Because the settings are correct, it must work.

Well before erasing everything I would try with resetting the network on the iPad, and use different IP's, like 192.168.1.xx.

Yeah, try using an IP address in the range suggested by Phil - those in the 169.254.n.n block aren't really what you should be using.

So . . . subnet mask 255.255.255.0, ip address in the 192.168.1.n range. Probably best to make this arrangement a Static IP to avoid the DHCP lottery altogether.

:? Nope. Tried 192.168.1.xx range. Static IPs. Tried LoopMIDI. No luck...

sorry about that.

What also comes into play if wifi doesn't work is the wireless card. See if there is a more recent driver available. Or find a replacement.

There is a nice app called Actions for key commands on Mac and Windows. It's easy to setup, maybe try it with this one?

The only thing I can think of is that static IPs are not, in fact, set up correctly - taking into consideration the DHCP-assigned addresses involved here - but then again, if MIDI is making the journey unmolested . . . bizarre really!

Crazy, right? Maybe the next step would be to borrow someone's iPad.
